Pokemon Gold Alt main Meganium Route TODO: Generally cleaning everything up Radio section after Center PP route doesn't work as written and needs to be fixed double checking ranges esp E4 to end (+ Adding some important defensive ranges) Adding FCCD route (done, just needs to be added, better than expected) Extra info for FCCD: https://pastebin.com/6QXkhwAq Now compatible with FECF and FDCE. (they are very similar, biggest difference is Will fight and Early Erika) Chiko Manip Video: https://youtu.be/_qJjWJwfoSg Seentret Manip video*: https://youtu.be/Azo8MbVUR0M Hasn't been tested on most IGT frames yet Alternate chiko manip (HP Ground): https://youtu.be/vtLOXn2fVg8 Probably more optimal, but the notes that are linked are kinda messy. Falkner Split Perform the Manips (LID,Chiko) My Current Manip offstet: LID 28359 Chiko 10693 R29/sentret 10944 Always leave the lab on the left (it's faster and makes R29 manip possible) Can take berry off, if you are confirming the stats. Keeping the berry Held improves rival 1 a bit If you hold the berry you can faint a caterpie or L2 Pidgey if you see one on the way to rival Rival1: 4-5 Tackle (4 Tackle is 1 in 2mio xdd) If turn 1 Leer, can go for Growl for safety (or just don't miss/get crit) You want to get 58+ Exp before ABE. Ideally you get a L3/4 Caterpie on the way to rival and Metapod/Bellsprout on R31 Might even be worth to just skip Encounters until after Don Getting 79+ Exp gives you L9 for Nico (100% 2 hits) Sentret catch is required for this route!!! (note the breakouts) Mikey: Pidgey: 2-3 Tackle Rat: 3-4 Tackle Expect to miss These ranges Don: @L7 3 Tackle (99.99%) @L8 RL+Tackle (Bitterberry) Not sure if bitterberry is actually useful enough, but it's good safety If you got lees than 58 exp, grind for Encounters before getting to violet !!! Go to sprout Tower Nico: 2-3 Tackle 56.61% on L8 Go to the mart * Can delay selling Balls, buy only 1 Potions (second Potion is just safety) Sell Balls (if 3 or more you can buy an extra potion) buy: (2)Potion 5 X ATK 2 X SPD Potion+equip berry ABE: Growl, 4-5 RL heal if below 9 HP (8 is a 1/39) Heal Rod: 2*(3-4) RL 84.15% (Heal) equip berry (save) Falkner: Pidgey: 3 X ATK, X SPD heal now or after first tackle (can also RL so you never kill before healing) 2 Tackle Pidgeo: 3 Tackle Union Cave split Get Egg+Center get Przcureberry Get Miracleseed (Equip Bitterberry), Teach MS over Growl Albert: Rat (reflect)RL(+MS) 62% (100% with Miracle seed) Zubat 3-4 Tackle (Get Potion?)
